+ The first thing to do is to make space for your Ubuntu installation. - Most of the time, the best way of achieving this is to shrink your existing - OS partition (In this tutorial, we will be dealing with dual-booting with - Windows. If you are a Mac user, please use the tutorial on dual-booting for - a Mac.)
-Windows has its own built-in partition creator. Here is a really simple - tutorial on dummies.com that can help you with that. The link is - here.
-To begin the creation of your USB, grab an empty USB stick and download - an Ubuntu .iso file (you have a choice between the stable and lastest - releases. Stable versions are recommended.) at the official Ubuntu website.
-Next, you need to install a "USB creator" to help create your bootable - USB stick. Some USB creators include Universal - USB Installer (or UUI) and Balena Etcher. Instructions are - provided on both of the websites on how to use each individual creator.
-After doing so, you can then close the installer once it states that the - bootable USB is ready. At this point, you can restart your PC enable to - start the installation process.
-To boot off your newly-created USB, you would need to access your - computer's BIOS. This can be access by pressing a certain key(s) when you - first boot up. Your BIOS keys depend on your PC's manufacturer, which can - usually be found with a quick Google search.
-After you have successfully accessed your BIOS, press your appropriate - key to open up your boot options. Select your USB device that with the - Ubuntu installer installed onto it. Once you see the Ubuntu start up - screen, all you have to do is to follow onscreen instructions. When Ubuntu - asks for where you would like to have the Ubuntu OS installed, click - "Something Else". Only select this option, as the others may mess up your - existing Windows installation. It would then ask you to select an empty - partition for you to install on. Select the empty partition that you - created using the Windows shrinking tool and select next. After that, - installation is pretty straight forward.
-Congrats! You now have Ubuntu and Windows at the same time!
-Dual-booting any Linux distro on a Macbook requires you to get your - hands more dirty. For this tutorial, I'll be referencing this article by - Chris Hoffman on HowToGeek.com on how to do this. The website is - here.
-Before doing anything, make sure that you have full-disk encryption - disabled. Otherwise, you may come across some weird issues when setting up - the necessary tools to start the dual-boot process.
-First, you need to install rEFInd onto your Macbook, which allows you to - boot onto many other operating systems installed onto your - machine.
Download it - here. Select the .zip file of the latest, stable build. Open a terminal - window, drag the install.sh file on to the window, and press enter to begin - the installation process. It may require your password (or admin password - if you are not the admin) to allow this action, so have that handy. Once it - is done, restart your Mac and you should see the boot manager menu. -Next, we need to shrink the existing Mac OS space to make some space for - Ubuntu. This can be achieved by using the Disk Utility tool preinstalled - onto your Mac. Just open the tool and shrink your current storage amount - for the Mac OSX. Although the minimum storage limit for Ubuntu is 5GB, it - is recommended allow storage greater than 5GBs. Most recommend 20GB to - 30GB, but it depends on what you want. Just leave adequate amount of room - for OSX is you plan on continuing to add data to your machine. Don't create - a partition, just leave the empty storage alone.
-Create your USB creator as usual (software is compatable with Mac). - After creation, simply restart your computer and you will approach the boot - menu for rEFInd. Select the inserted USB stick with the Ubuntu installer - installed to boot into the boot launcher. From there, installation is the - same as what is descibed in the Windows tutorial. After the installation, - your Mac will boot into the same menu at startup always. From there, you - can change between booting into Mac and booting into Ubuntu.
-That is all you have to do! You can also follow the article I used (link - at top) to do this tutorial as well.
